On Tuesday night I went to the Church on Marshall St in the rain, that serves the homeless.
The more I attend the more comfortable I am getting with the unfamiliar setting.
I don't do we'll around strangers. It takes me some time to get to know folks.
During dinner I got to know one gentleman. We enjoyed a conversation about college. He knew about King college where my son goes to school.
I then proceeded to take note of all the folks I had seen before the last time I was there.
What I struggle with the most, is the fact that when it is all over I get in my nice car and drive home to my lovely wife and comfortable setting.
I walk out to my car and watch men and women scatter into the dark and wet night.
Where do they go?
I pray that that picture will burn in my soul to fuel the path I am on to help end homelessness in Richmond!
